"2025-26 stats (68 games): This was Wiggins' first full campaign in Miami following his arrival as part of the midseason Jimmy Butler trade in 2024-25. Wiggins is an accomplished veteran 3 and D forward that brings an impact on both ends of the floor every night. He may not be the 2022 All-Star version of himself when he was on the Golden State Warriors anymore, but he is a rock solid rotation player that any championship team would love to have."
"Wiggs had several standout moments, most notably including his buzzer beating alley oop game winner earlier in the year in an upset over the Cleveland Cavaliers. He is a versatile wing that can be relied upon to guard opposing team's best perimeter players and also impact offensively with his floor spreading ability and rim slashing. Coach Erik Spoelstra has always trusted him and his veteran presence since day one- as Wiggins has never appeared off the bench in any of his games with the Heat."
"41.4 - 3-point percentage Wiggins has always been a reliable 3-point shooter throughout his 13-year career. But even in his age-31 season, he found a way to knock down a career-high 41.4% from deep. He has always been a much better spot up shooter than off the dribble, but nonetheless, he is statistically one of Miami's top shooters efficiency wise. It makes a great frontcourt complement to Bam Adebayo and even more so in games that Kel'el Ware has started alongside them as a floor spreading threat."
"2.1 - Total 'stocks' per game These are the types of numbers that Spoelstra loves to see- an impact on the defensive end of the floor. Wiggins has a valuable 7-foot wingspan and puts it to use with getting into passing lanes and altering shots. He averaged 2.1 "stocks" per game; a comb"
Andrew Wiggins completed his first full season in Miami after joining the team in the 2024-25 Jimmy Butler trade. He provided consistent two-way impact as a veteran 3-and-D forward, trusted by Erik Spoelstra and never appearing off the bench. Wiggins produced standout moments, including a buzzer-beating alley-oop game winner against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Offensively, he shot 41.4% from three, a career high, and remained more effective as a spot-up shooter than off the dribble. Defensively, he used a 7-foot wingspan to get into passing lanes and alter shots, averaging 2.1 defensive “stocks” per game.
